Stevehs, onc of the most active members of the republican town committee. It is sald that the appointment will be op- posed by his fellow members of the republican town committee. The reason for the opposition to the appointment is reported to be an aftermath of the split in the G, O. P. ranks, which cropped out at the town clection last vear. At that time the party was split sinto ‘four factions commonly called the Stevens, Benson, Deming and Taylor factions. Re- Al sors in Session.
